Decisions! Decisions! I just can't sit still.
So much I've to do in short time.
My mind won't stop racing. The troubles I'm facing.
Have caused me to write this short rhyme.
My kids need attention. Much more than I've got.
This single dad stuff, isn't easy.
I do what I can, but I can't find a plan,
to please everyone else and still please me.
It leads to depression. Deep, dark and dreary.
Total immobilization!
The plans that I make, keep me up nights, awake.
My dreams won't become my creation.
If I could just focus, on only one thing.
I'm sure I could be a success.
But I've spread me so thin. There is no way to win.
My life is becoming a mess.
Why can't I be happy, for who I've become.
Though I'd failed much, I much did succeed.
My guilt tends to linger. Like string on my finger.
Perhaps I want more than I need.
To only slow down. Find some peace in my heart.
Find space in mind to relax.
Would my smile return. Would I finally, then, learn.
How to slip thru life's difficult cracks.
To live every moment, as if no tomorrow.
To cherish each day's my desire.
To accept me for me, and to finally set free,
this anguish that douses my fire.
Slow me down God. Slow my mind, I might focus.
Help me to stare stead of peeking.
Help me to concentrate. Let me not hesitate,
finding this goal I've been seeking.
